The thing is Facebook is gradually learning and I think Zuckerberg deep down would want to overthrow the longevity of steemit
To be honest, I don't think Facebook even notices Steemit exists. And if it does, it'd look at it and know the platform has deep issues so it doesn't actually need to worry about it.
Why do you think the Facebook owner is planning to monetize Facebook?
Because he wants more money? And because it's a public company with investors?
Also, Facebook has been monetized for a while, via ads.
I mean you haven't heard the plan for users to earn too?
There is no such plan.
And even if there were, "Whoa, earn money for writing on a social platform online, nobody has done it before Steemit!"
